It has been three days since she went to live in the hostel. But I was getting very restless because her life was in danger and she was defenceless at the hostel. Anybody could kidnap or harm her there.

I went to her hostel to get her back to the haveli a few times but the stubborn girl has never listened to me so why would she listen now??

I tried to persuade her to come back as it was not safe for her. But she was adamant and asked me to leave her alone.

" Manik Ji please don't come to my hostel again and again as people are talking about us and our relationship. I am absolutely safe inside the hostel. " I looked around and literally saw people talking about us.

They were looking at us as if we had committed some crime. I could see it in their eyes. Roshni started crying.

" Enough of all this, please be strong, as I can't see you like this. That is the reason I was avoiding accepting my feelings. But now that I have accepted it, I would not back out. We love each other and we have a right to live happily ever after. Don't cry!! I will find a way to get out of it. Have some trust in me. " I said and she nodded.

I came back and we tried to find out who had written that news article but had not reached the man yet. But I was not going to leave that man.

My phone was ringing continuously. And I looked at the screen with annoyance but calmed down all of a sudden when I saw my chachi's face on the screen it was so good to see her calling me I picked up the phone immediately.

" Hello?? Chachi, I am so glad that you called, I really wanted to talk to you. " I was desperate to talk to her as she was very smart and level-headed. She could handle anything or any situation.

" Awww... You are the one who loves me the most out of my 3 children. I also wanted to talk to you. Why don't you come home, we will have a detailed talk. " She said.

" I wish I could come and talk to you right now, I want to come and meet you but it is not possible because I am a bit tied up in Surat, and can't come to Delhi," I said with disappointment.

" Did I ask you to come to Delhi? I told you to come home, I know you can't come to Delhi every week. Come home, son... I am waiting for you, in Surat at our home. Come soon, it is something very important. " She said and I was so happy to hear that she was here in Surat.

Finally, I will get a chance to tell her everything. She has been a superwoman, and a magician, and I was sure that she would definitely solve my issues. I rushed to my home.

I got a phone call from Viren as well but I was not in the mood to talk about the wedding or Myra so I ignored the call. I really felt bad for doing so, he was my friend and I was ignoring him like that.

But I already had so much in my mind to bother me and I was in no mood to add some more problematic issues to it.

I reached home and ran inside to meet Chachi but was shocked to see Chachu, Chachi, Viraj uncle, Maya aunty and Viren sitting there having tea and snacks. I stopped in track as the hope to talk to Chachi privately was gone.

I was really looking forward to it. But now... I still have to find a chance to talk to her, only she could help me.

She knew this area so well. As her family belonged from here. And they were also very influential people.

The moment Viren saw me he came to hug me.

" So, you have not even married my sister yet and have already started giving me an attitude?? Didn't even pick-up my call... While you had talked to Chachi just a few minutes back. May I know, why?? " He asked.

" Oh, it is nothing like that I was in a meeting earlier and my phone was in silent mode. By chance when Chachi called up, I was checking my phone. And when you called I was driving so I didn't see that you were calling. " I explained as I was feeling very guilty.

I greeted everyone... And looked around to see if Myra had also come. As her whole family was here.

" Awww ... I told you that we should have brought Myra with us as well, see my poor nephew is looking around hoping to get a chance to see his future wife. Sorry, son!! Your lady love has not come with us. " Mehul chachu said and everyone laughed.

Thank God!! I didn't want her around. I just could not pretend.

" No!! I didn't look around for her... It was just like that. "

" Awww... Don't lie!! Disappointment is written all over your face. " Chachi said.

Chachi was right, but it was not because Myra had not come. In fact, that was the only thing I was relieved of.

But what were they all doing here?? All of a sudden?

I hope they were not here to talk about wedding. I would not be able to take it anymore. Not at the moment... please.

" Go and get fresh, I will get the lunch served. " Chachi said. I nodded.

I was going to my room when Viren joined me.

Are you upset with me, till now? Myra was telling me that you were a bit upset. You can tell me, I am your friend besides being her brother. I am sorry if I upset you. Please don't be angry with her. " He asked me once we both went to my room.

" No!! I was never upset with you. Any protective brother would have done that. It's just that I didn't want to get engaged like this. You are my friend for years so, I hope I can tell you what I feel... I am sorry if that upset you, but we had just started dating. We had gone out only on 3 dates. Though I liked her a lot, she was not very happy in the relationship as I had to move to Surat. Because we had to have a long-distance relationship. Just one week before the engagement, she was saying that she was not enjoying being in the relationship as she didn't feel much about me... And it was me who was making all the efforts to make this relationship work. " I said.

Though I knew, I was being a bit blunt but I was not in the mood to sugarcoat anything.

" Is that why Mihir arranged the trip to Surat because you wanted to meet her? " He asked.

" Since he knew about my relationship with Myra, he asked me, what was going on and I told him that she was upset because we could not meet and date, I also told him that she was feeling neglected. " I said.

" I can understand. But only if I knew about it, I could have arranged for both of you to meet. " He said.

" Let it be... Forget everything. "

" No!! On the contrary, we should talk about it we should solve every misunderstanding we have between us as we are going to be related now. " He said.

" I was feeling guilty that I had not told my friends and especially you and Sujal about it so I asked her many times that I feel bad hiding things from you but she wanted to have more time because she was not sure about the relationship and when I ask what she thinks about the relationship she said she needs time and chances to meet me so that she can decide if she wanted to spend the rest of her life with me or not so Mihir arranged that trip but I had no idea about it. I was shocked to see all of you and especially her at my place. "

" I am sorry for the way I behaved that day. I should have heard your side of the story too. "

" There was almost next to nothing between us. I never kissed her or anything. And that day, all of a sudden she kissed me and... Well you know all that. So I am still confused about the relationship between us. We are not romantically involved. We were not even sure of each other's feelings and here we are engaged with our parents and everyone in the group being so excited about it. I am scared for us. "

" Oh!! I am sorry, I should have talked to you before talking to my parents.

" Yes, you should have, it is not child's play. It is about your sister and my whole life. " I said.

" Hmmm"

" Anyway, tell me how's life... I love being in Delhi. Life is not as easy here as it is in Delhi. The people are not that broadminded here. Sometimes I think, that it is not so easy for a broadminded girl like Myra to adjust here. " I said.

" But now that she is getting married to you, she has to adjust a bit and live according to the place, and when you come to Delhi, she can enjoy. Take her on a trip abroad at times and she will be fine. "

" Viren, I need to tell... "

" Later on!! I almost forgot that we all have to leave today itself. We came to meet you specially. Now get fresh and come back. I am hungry. Chachi and mom will scold me for keeping you busy. I better go and enjoy the gujrati delicacies. Come soon. We all are waiting. " He said and went away.

Shit!! Why are they here??
